accodring to the tuner, the engine torque limit was set at 400nm and the gearbox was 450, the gearbox wont go higher than the engine limit, so the tuner adjusted the engine torque limit.

1) What did your tuner adjust the engine torque limit up to. 2) So the Gearbox /Transmission will take/handle whatever the Engine Torque is set/adjusted to. I was looking at a Chip or Tune. Upgrading my Intercooler and Fan, which come from the BMW 320d Performance Power Kit. |

1.) he set my engine torque limit to 550nm. 2.) tried a 328d with racechip, but the gear change on the custom tune feels faster im also looking to order the wagner competition intercooler, but for fan, seems i cant find any P/N to compare with my current one, so leaving as is. |

Got my n47 318d tuned and ended up with 200hp 440nm pretty happy with that! Exhaust and intake is all stock!
Don't know what's else I can do to improve power in a 318d |

I'm still busy with other things to check on BMW Parts and I will probably have to join the BMW Secret Service to get Info/Part No's etc. as they make it hard to get Info. It's only the perseverance of us on these forums that get the Info. needed. The Wagner Intercooler looks good. I believe my Intercooler is not much smaller than the MPKK one, my Fan is 400W and theirs is 600W. Will chase up later. Also |

You should be happy with your Tuned figures. Use Premium Fuel. Our Premium Fuel has Additives that are supposed to keep the engine cleaner. There are also Additives you can put in, I think BMW have some. OIL - Originally mine was every 2 Years. I rang Castrol and their Tech. guy said because the oil i use is Fully Synthetic it's good for 2 Years BUT suggested if you want to look after your car you should change it every year for peace of mind. So, I would find the best Oil that suits your car. Basically People who just do short trips would need to look at giving the car a good higher speed trip, blowing the cobwebs out, changing their oil say every 6 Months, maybe and if they cant get good Premium Fuel, look at Additives also. Sorry for long comments. Everyone usually has different circumstances. |

ok, i have fitted the wagner intercooler, and have had the car retuned. the car is now running 290bhp 640nm on euro5 diesel. drives fine, the pull is now fantastic, water temps did seem to drop 1 or 2 degrees after fitting the wagner (checked via scanguage2).
BTW, anyone fitted ATF cooler on their cars? |

640nm?! (472ftlbs)
I'm curious how long that transmission / transfer case holds out. How hard do you push it? How often?

Unless you live on the gulf and it's 100 with a relative humidity of 98%. I'm still wanting to upgrade mine just to handle the Gulf Texas summer heat.
